“ I found this workshop SUPER helpful. Even though it was a 2.5 hour intro to animation Susan was able to cover an enormous amount of ground and really give more than just a crash-course into animation. The combination of the information and her coaching on a lot of line reads was a perfect introduction. Thank you!!!”

— Brendan, Actor

“Thank you! I really enjoyed the class. The size and pace was perfect as we all got a chance to have time for practice. Susan really gave me so much to consider and the activities were very stretching. Thank you so much!”

— Liz, Actor

“I just wanted to thank you and Susan both for the Workshop!

I really enjoyed it, learned a lot and am hoping to be available for the next Intensive Weekend Workshop! She’s a fabulous teacher!”

— Stasia

“I had such a wonderful experience with Susan yesterday. So much information. I feel like I’ve learned so much. And will be going over the zoom recording to make sure I have all the information down. The different ways of approaching a script really helped me understand how to connect with what's authentic to me.”

— Lindsay, Actor

“Holy Crap! That was awesome. I'm so glad I got a spot, even though my brain hurts a lot. :)”

Stefen, Actor

“Susan Hart's Animation workshops. I knooooowww it's animation BUT those skills are applicable in everythaaaaang. Honestly. I stopped second guessing myself in self tapes because of all that I've learned and my confidence has shot up 300% in the booth. If you have a chance attend these classes. Trust me, you will have Zerrroooo regrets.”

I took the Intro to VO and you can tell Janice is really a pro at what she does. This class is the real deal with great actionable techniques. We got to work right away breaking down scripts and learned how to apply their tips and techniques to make our auditions better in real time. Loved the "no bs" and honest attitude Janice, Drew and the engineer shared. They really want you to perform better and get the job and they show you how to do that quickly and effectively. Highly recommended for any actor pursuing a professional career in voice. I feel way more confident about my voice auditions already.

“The Introduction To Voice-Over Workshop exceeded my expectations. Taught by two top working pros, the in-studio class covered everything from script breakdown to audition do’s and don’t’s. Janice and Ted put us through the paces in a real-life scenario reading actual advertising scripts. It was fun and educational watching the other participants, and at no time did I feel overly nervous. It was a relaxed setting. We all received an audio copy of our performances and personal feedback by email.

The Demomanics can also assist in putting together a high-end demo, and they offer valuable workshops - all in a real-world setting.

I would highly recommend the course to anyone serious about getting into Voice-Over work, no matter if you’re a newby or a rusty great who wants to brush up and shake off the cobwebs.. Nice work DemoManiacs!”

— Anthony, Voice actor

“I love the enthusiasm Janice and Ted bring to the craft and their ability to find the perfect words to pull quality performances out of people is top notch!

They injected a whole lot of fun into the work and taught me the importance of breaking out of the frame. As an on-camera actor I’m always afraid of moving too much so voice acting is counter intuitive for me. The thought of flailing my arms about and jumping around never seemed like an option. It’s incredibly freeing and brings so much more to a performance! I look forward to putting the techniques I learned to good use.”

— Delphine, Actor

“Thanks so much I thought it was awesome!

What I loved most was the balance of the whole thing.

The ratio of theory to practical exercise to fun to serious discussion was struck perfectly in my opinion.

It was also great having two veterans of the industry from two seperate sides of the glass in you and Ted to round out the understanding and appreciation of the game more evenly.”

— Steve, Voice actor

“Thank you so much to Ted and Janice for the fabulous Audition Circuit class!

It was a lot of fun as well as challenging; and thank you for taking the

time to curate all of that copy for each of us.

I loved the pace of the class, and the fun and joyful approach set a great tone to the evening.”

— Justine, Actor

“Thanks so much for such a great session, Janice! Exactly what I needed. I felt I was groping around in the dark with some audiobook auditions I have had, and now I feel MUCH more prepared, with some good tools. And, I am going to practice reading aloud! makes sense and is simple so a great mini kick in the butt to me to do it.”

Sarah, Actor

“Ellen’s Video Game Workshop was incredible! She really knows her stuff and makes it so much fun. Supportive and challenging all at the same time. I learned a ton! Wow! Thank you Ellen and DemoManiacs!”

— Dan, Voice actor

“Jenn’s Mindset Workshop was exactly what I’d been looking for. She gave us a lot of insight into what’s going on in our subconscious minds and all of those little voices that get in our way as performers! I can’t wait for a multiple week course!”

— Christine, Voice actor

The Audition Circuit class was great ! I would sign up for every single class. A great way to get in front of a bunch of different types of copy and work the muscles- and in front of voice casting to boot. Thank you for picking out copy that suits us. You could just as easily hand out generic scripts but it really means a lot that you take the time to pass out material in our hit!

Can't thank you enough.
